Bible Note: It seems as though you are taking a defensive position for some reason. Where in my previous post “did I” say that you didn’t have the Son? The only thing that you confused me with was the sorrow ploy which I can’t find in Scripture. Boiling down salvation, to its simplest form, is found in the most popular verse in the Bible. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. The problem comes from what the Koine Greek word of the New testament, believe, actually means. pisteuo, Greek 4100, Strong’s pisteuo, pist-yoo'-o; from Greek 4102 (pistis); to have faith (in, upon, or with respect to, a person or thing), i.e. credit; by implication to entrust (especially one's spiritual well-being to Christ) believe (-r), commit (to trust), put in trust with. Faith or believe are transitive verbs, there is no merit in faith; it’s the object of the verb that gets all of the credit, not the fact of faith. The total merit in God’s plan is the person of His unique Son, Jesus the Christ. If one places all of his hope for eternal life in who and what Jesus did God gives eternal life as a free gift. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Repentance and faith are two sides of the same coin. Repentance isn’t sorrow as many would have one believe but it comes to us from the word “METANOEO”, meta to change and noeo for mind, i.e. have a change of mind about the person of Christ. Luke 13:5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Couple that with the following. John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. These aren’t my ideas, its God’s Word. Have a great day, CDBJ |
